CAP funds shape farm retirement contracts and budget
The CAP program saw limited retirements in 1966 and 1967 with about 2 million acres retired. Appropriations panels rejected a plan to expand retirements, citing home and abroad food needs. The 1968 budget maintains CAP payments, blocks new contracts, and trims farm loans while warning of possible supplemental funding if needs rise. Record soybean stocks and steady prices frame the agricultural outlook as plantings may exceed earlier estimates.
